For those players who do not already have a team but would like to be selected for one, there is where you go. Here teams can search out and make offers on various duelists who are single, lonely and looking to duel when they're not with one of their many sexual partners.
Free Agents should include the following information:

In the blurb, you can include anything potential teams might want to know about you, like you Credentials, Why you might be a good team member, Memes you may have created for a facebook page, etc. Likewise, you may leave it blank if you so choose. Ideally we will have you placed on a team within 72 hours once a season starts, but it may take a bit longer, so please be patient.

Dino King is a deck that become a thing due to the Dinosmasher's Fury Structure Deck on April 14th 2017. Following the neutering of Zoodiac, both variants of True Draco King quickly became strong decks in the OCG, and will surely be competitive in the TCG upon release as well. How does Dino King work?
Dino King is a combo Karakuri-ish deck that seeks to destroy copies of Petiteranodon or Babycerasaurus in order to Special Summon a dino from the Deck, and then combo off ideally to create a large field backed by True King VFD, Evolzar Laggia, Toadally Awesome, Ultimate Conductor Tyranno, Naturia Beast, or some combination of those.
Main cards
Babycerasaurus
Level 2 / Earth / Dinosaur / Effect / 500 / 500
If this card is destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard: Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Dinosaur-Type monster from your Deck.
Petiteranodon
Level 2 / Earth / Dinosaur / Effect / 500 / 500
If this card is destroyed by a card effect and sent to the Graveyard: Special Summon 1 Level 4 or higher Dinosaur-Type monster from your Deck, but it cannot attack this turn.
These two are almost the same card. That being said, Babycera is better because being able to grab Lv 4 and lower lets you get more Babycera or Petite, or Jurrac Aeolo. Neither of them are hard OPT so activating them multiple times off of Diagram, Oviraptor, or Lithosagym generates a ton of advantage.
In order to set up Petite and Babycera, you have several cards to search them:
Souleating Oviraptor
Level 4 / Dark / Dinosaur / Effect / 1800 / 500
If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can take 1 Dinosaur-Type monster from your Deck, and either add it to your hand or send it to the Graveyard. You can target 1 other Level 4 or lower Dinosaur-Type monster on the field; destroy it, then Special Summon 1 Dinosaur-Type monster from your Graveyard in Defense Position. You can only use each effect of "Souleating Oviraptor" once per turn.
Fossil Dig
Normal Spell
Add 1 Level 6 or lower Dinosaur-Type monster from your Deck to your hand.
Oviraptor is a Stratos + Armageddon Knight. It has no restrictions on what dinos it can search, so you can add Ultimate Conductor or even Dogoran the Mad Flame Kaiju. While ideally you will destroy a baby to pull Oviraptor from the deck, you can also normal Ovi to search a baby, and then destroy it off of Diagram. Fossil Dig doubles your count of this guy.
Dragonic Diagram
Field Spell
All "True Draco" and "True King" monsters on the field gain 300 ATK and DEF. The first time each Tribute Summoned "True Draco" or "True King" monster would be destroyed by battle each turn, it is not destroyed. Once per turn: You can destroy 1 other card you control or in your hand, and if you do, add 1 "True Draco" or "True King" card from your Deck to your hand.
Terraforming
Normal Spell
Add 1 Field Spell Card from your Deck to your hand.
True King Lithosagym, the Disaster
Level 9 / Earth / Wyrm / Effect / 2500 / 2300
If this card is in your hand: You can destroy 2 other monsters in your hand and/or face-up on your field, including an EARTH monster, and if you do, Special Summon this card, and if you do that, and both destroyed monsters were EARTH, you can also look at your opponent's Extra Deck and banish up to 3 monsters from it with different names. If this card is destroyed by card effect: You can Special Summon 1 non-EARTH Wyrm-Type monster from your Graveyard. You can only use each effect of "True King Lithosagym, the Disaster" once per turn.
True King Agnimazaud, the Vanisher
Level 9 / Fire / Wyrm / Effect / 2900 / 1900
If this card is in your hand: You can destroy 2 other monsters in your hand and/or face-up on your field, including a FIRE monster, and if you do, Special Summon this card, and if you do that, you can banish 1 monster from your opponent's field or Graveyard, if both the destroyed monsters were FIRE. If this card is destroyed by card effect: You can add 1 non-FIRE Wyrm-Type monster from your Graveyard to your hand. You can only use each effect of "True King Agnimazud, the Vanisher" once per turn.
True King Bahrastos, the Fathomer
Level 9 / Water / Wyrm / Effect / 1800 / 3000
If this card is in your hand: You can destroy 2 other monsters in your hand and/or face-up on your field, including a WATER monster, and if you do, Special Summon this card, and if you do that, you can banish up to 2 Spell/Trap Cards from your opponent's field and/or Graveyard, if both the destroyed monsters were WATER. If this card is destroyed by card effect: You can Special Summon 1 non-WATER Wyrm-Type monster from your Deck in Defense Position. You can only use each effect of "True King Bahrastos, the Fathomer" once per turn.
Diagram is one of the best cards in the game, and in Dino King not only does it search Litho, it also lets you destroy babies to summon Oviraptor.
Litho is favored because its effect lets you destroy the Earth-attribute babies, but also because of that extra deck banish. It doesn't give you any direct field advantage like Agni or Bahr would, but it can cripple the opponent when they also have to stare down a big lockout field.
Agni being fire plays nice with Miscellaneousaurus while Bahr goes with Megalosmasher (and by extension, Norden into Bahamut into Toad). You really shouldn't want to summon either one, but you want at least one color other than Litho to take advantage of Litho's effect, as well as Denglong level modding.
Miscellaneousaurus
Level 4 / Fire / Dinosaur / Effect / 1800 / 1000
During either player's Main Phase: You can send this card from your hand to the Graveyard; during this Main Phase, Dinosaur-Type monsters you control are unaffected by your opponent's activated effects. You can banish any number of Dinosaur-Type monsters from your Graveyard, including this card; Special Summon 1 Dinosaur-Type monster from your Deck with a Level equal to the total number of monsters banished to activate this effect, but destroy it during the End Phase. You can only use this effect of "Miscellaneousaurus" once per turn.
This deck also has a really good protection card that shits on most cards that would stop you. Outs negation, and then you can banish dinos from the grave to grab another guy from the deck. With Aeolo as a level 1, Miscell will typically never be dead. Miscell also has some other targets, shown below:
Tyranno Infinity
Level 4 / Earth / Dinosaur / Effect / ? / 0
The original ATK of this card is the number of your banished Dinosaur-Type monsters x 1000.
Jurrac Aeolo
Level 1 / Fire / Dinosaur / Tuner / Effect / 200 / 200
You can Tribute this card to select 1 Level 4 or lower "Jurrac" monster in your Graveyard, except "Jurrac Aeolo". Special Summon that monster from the Graveyard.
Megalosmasher X
Level 4 / Water / Dinosaur / 2000 / 0
Rescue Rabbit
Level 4 / Earth / Beast / Effect / 300 / 100
annot be Special Summoned from the Deck. You can banish this face-up card you control; Special Summon 2 Level 4 or lower Normal Monsters with the same name from your Deck, but destroy them during the End Phase. You can only use this effect of "Rescue Rabbit" once per turn.
Unexpected Dai
Normal Spell
If you control no monsters: Special Summon 1 Level 4 or lower Normal Monster from the Deck.
Evolzar Laggia
Rank 4 / Fire / Dragon / Xyz / Effect / 2400 / 2000
2 Level 4 Dinosaur-Type monsters
During either player's turn, when a monster(s) would be Normal or Special Summoned, OR a Spell/Trap Card is activated: You can detach 2 Xyz Materials from this card; negate the Summon or activation, and if you do, destroy that card.
Miscell banishing 4 to summon Infinity gives it 4k off the bat, Ultimate Conductor banishing another 2 makes it 6k, other banishes make it even bigger and give you a surprise gameshot straight from the deck. Miscell can also banish just itself to grab Aeolo to make a Sync 5 off of Oviraptor. As mentioned earlier, Megalosmasher is a water for Bahrastos and Bahamut Shark, where the idea is to send it to the grave for a summon and then Instant Fusion for Norden to grab Toad.
You should already know what Laggia does, but the reason for Laggia over Dolkka (who has 2 negates) is because VFD usually blocks out all of their monster effects. Laggia stops Raigeki and Dolkka doesn't.
True King of All Calamities (VFD)
Rank 9 / Dark / Wyrm / Xyz / Effect / 3000 / 3000
2 or more Level 9 monsters
Once per turn, during either player's turn: You can detach 1 Xyz Material from this card and declare 1 Attribute; this turn, all face-up monsters on the field become that Attribute, also all monsters in your opponent's possession with that Attribute cannot activate their effects or attack. Monsters that "True Draco" and "True King" monsters in your hand would destroy with their effects can be chosen from your opponent's field.
Denglong, First of the Yang Zing
Level 5 / Light / Wyrm / Synchro / Effect / 0 / 2800
1 Tuner + 1 or more non-Tuner monsters
If this card is Special Summoned: You can add 1 "Yang Zing" card from your Deck to your hand. Once per turn: You can send 1 Wyrm-Type monster from your Deck to the Graveyard; this card's Level becomes the sent monster's. If this face-up card leaves the field: You can Special Summon 1 "Yang Zing" monster from your Deck. You can only Special Summon "Denglong, First of the Yang Zing(s)" once per turn.
Summon Denglong off of Level 4 + Aeolo. Mill a True King from the deck to become 9, pair with Litho to make VFD while also triggering 2 babies to summon 2 dinos from the deck for Laggia.
Ultimate Conductor Tyranno
Level 10 / Light / Dinosaur / Effect / 3500 / 3200
Cannot be Normal Summoned/Set. Must first be Special Summoned (from your hand) by banishing 2 Dinosaur-Type monsters from your Graveyard. Once per turn, during either player's Main Phase: You can destroy 1 monster in your hand or field, and if you do, change all face-up monsters your opponent controls to face-down Defense Position. This card can attack all monsters your opponent controls, once each. At the start of the Damage Step, if this card attacks a Defense Position monster: You can inflict 1000 damage to your opponent, and if you do, send that Defense Position monster to the Graveyard.
If the opponent tries to do anything, immediately Book of Eclipse all of their cards and then wipe all of them during your BP for X000 damage on top of your other attacks. Crazy good for a thing that doesn't even negate card effects. Just drop this guy alongside whatever other field you have to instantly put game-ending pressure on the opponent either on the defensive AND offensive.
Dogoran, the Mad Flame Kaiju
Level 8 / Fire / Dinosaur / Effect / 3000 / 1200
You can Special Summon this card (from your hand) to your opponent's side of the field in Attack Position, by Tributing 1 monster they control. If your opponent controls a "Kaiju" monster, you can Special Summon this card (from your hand) in Attack Position. You can only control 1 "Kaiju" monster. Once per turn: You can remove 3 Kaiju Counters from anywhere on the field; destroy all monsters your opponent controls. This card cannot attack the turn you activate this effect.
Searchable off of Oviraptor! It's also a Fire! You probably shouldn't need it but what if you dooooooo? Combos
1) Requires: Diagram/Terra (6) + Baby/Fossil (9)
a) Diagram destroy Baby add Litho
b) Baby summons Oviraptor, Oviraptor add Babycerasaurus
c) Normal Babycera, destroy it with Ovi and target the same Babycera
d) Baby summons a Baby from the deck
2) Requires: Diagram/Terra (6) + Oviraptor/Fossil (6)
a) Normal Ovi, add Babycerasaurus
b) activate Diagram
c) Diagram destroy Babycerasaurus add Litho
d) Babycerasaurus summons Babycerasaurus
This is basically the same combo. In any case, they both lead to the following:
e) Litho destroy 2 Baby, banish 3 from ED
f) Baby x2 effect, summon Aeolo and Miscell
g) Miscell + Aeolo = Denglong, Denglong mill TK become Lv 9
h) Litho + Denglong = VFD
i) Miscell banish from grave summon...

k) END: VFD + Laggia
OR
j) Miscell banish to summon Lv 4 dino (another Miscell?),
k) VFD effect declare Water
l) Miscell + Ovi = Bahamut, Bahamut summon Toad
m) END: VFD + Bahamut + Toad

l) Miscell banish from grave summon Miscell
m) Ovi + Miscell = Laggia
n) END: VFD + Laggia + Naturia
Instant Fusion with Megalosmasher (more bricks):

While this may be true, I've failed in other ways. For one, my practical contributions to the site as of late have been very little and I've been neglecting most of my yugioh related duties due to things outside the site.
I also was hesitant to fire Mark recently because I thought he was actually doing something, or at least would be willing to had I actually had the time to show him how to do shit. So I am partially responsible for keeping him on staff for some amount of time.

Hi welcome. I see that one of your interests is sounding smart. At Duelistgroundz, it's important to keep a student mentality so that we can all learn from each other, and help you improve.
I also see your other interests are Minecraft, Star Wars, Marvel and Batman, which is most people would call "normie" but we need more normies here because everyone else is watching avante garde television dramas and avante garde anime.

It's one thing if you wanted to hire her for job diversity and all that, but considering you described her as "hot" I'm gonna assume that's not entirely the case.
If recent events have taught us anything it's "don't mix business and pleasure". You're in a position of power over her, this thread comes across as concerning.
Pick the ugly dude.

There are 3 main factors contributing to this decision, things that have occured both here and on the Duelist Unite team warring discord thing.
1- Multiple Members are guilty of account sharing on Duelingbook. Because we could not bother Xteven to go through specific dates/games, we can only assume the absolute worst given the numerous accusations and the fact that he did confirm that 5 memebers, including their captain, Gift were guilty of logging into each others accounts. Near N even admitting to using each others accounts, and while he claimed they do not war on each other's account, that is something difficult to take at face value.
2- Intentionally DCing during siding to change decklists. While this is conjecture, repeated DCing during siding also sets off red flags, happening to both Bullet Club and Sexually Oppressed Slaves in the exac t same manner. (Near N was playing, DC'd during siding game 3 knowing he's going first, and sides a ton of floodgates/traps)
3- Abusing DB admin privileges. They have been accused of using their admin privileges to view deck lists of opposing teams on the Duelist Unite server. While That is not heating in relation to our own site, we do not tolerate cheating, and will not allow the risk of this abuse to occur he if it hasn't already.
In addition to these 3 points, multiple other minor accusations have also come to light. Near N teams having been previously banned from DNF warring, bribery, sending spies to other teams, disruption of administration in other communities. So we have decided not to let them continue. @gift @Near N @Abnormal Dog @samoopusteno @ultra plant are all suspended from warring indefinitely, with possibility to return in the future.
All members of LPG will be disbarred from making teams in the future
All incomplete wars against LPG will end in no result. All completed matches that have already been reported to warbot will NOT be changed.
Evidence
My short conversaton with Near N
As a closing note, I guess I need to specify "don't let other people log into accounts you play war matches on" EDIT: One of our consultants on the matter wished to remain anonymous, so his screenshots were editing top protec this name.
